More News: Chicago Bulls expected to make quick decision on new trade acquisition

Trading away their veteran center, Nikola Vucevic, to the Boston Celtics for shooting guard Anfernee Simmons and a second-round pick, the Bulls made yet another move, trading guards Coby White and Mike Conley Jr. to the Charlotte Hornets for guard Colin Sexton, forward Ousmane Dieng, and three second-round picks, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania.

White had spent his entire seven-year career with the Bulls after they drafted him in the first round (seventh overall) in 2019, and has scored 15.4 points, 3.9 assists, and 3.7 rebounds. Sexton, this season with the Hornets (42 games), had scored 14.2 points per game, 1.9 rebounds, and 3.7 assists.

Trading White was always enviable. White will be an unrestricted free agent after this season, and the Bulls were never able to extend him due to the 140% rule. However, this trade is perplexing, as Sexton is also a free agent after this season and is making more than White ($18.975 million), who is making $12.888 million.

White has been on the trade block for two seasons and is having another solid year (18.6 points per game and 4.7 assists) after having a breakout season (20.4 points and 4.5 assists) in 2024-25. With his stock rising, it’s hard to see why the Bulls and their front office didn’t find a better package of players and picks to acquire White and Conley Jr.

With the trade deadline expiring at 3 p.m. on Friday, the Bulls still have possible moves they could make with the stockpile of picks they have acquired, which could signal they may make a play for the Milwaukee Bucks Giannis Antetokounmpo, but that remains to be seen.
